## Class LocationAttributes.Pipe

- java.lang.Object
- - com.opensymphony.xwork2.util.location.LocationAttributes.Pipe

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ContentHandler
  Enclosing class:
    LocationAttributes

      public static class LocationAttributes.Pipe
      extends Object
      implements ContentHandler

  A SAX filter that adds the information available from the `Locator` as attributes. The purpose of having location as attributes is to allow this information to survive transformations of the document (an XSL could copy these attributes over) or conversion of SAX events to a DOM.

  The location is added as 3 attributes in a specific namespace to each element.

       <root xmlns:loc="http://opensymphony.com/xwork/location"
             loc:src="file://path/to/file.xml"
             loc:line="1" loc:column="1">
         <foo loc:src="file://path/to/file.xml" loc:line="2" loc:column="3"/>
       </root>

  Note: Although this adds a lot of information to the serialized form of the document, the overhead in SAX events is not that big, as attribute names are interned, and all `src` attributes point to the same string.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### Pipe

          public Pipe()

    - #### Pipe

          public Pipe(ContentHandler next)

      Create a filter that is chained to another handler.
      Parameters:
        `next` - the next handler in the chain.
